Full review
Kite is a screen recorder built for stunning product demo videos. It tracks your cursor and keyboard inputs to automatically zoom into the action and add cinematic 3D camera movements, so a plain capture comes out looking produced.
It can place recordings on 3D device mockups like MacBooks and iPhones, combine multiple clips, adjust speed, and add text scenes, AI voiceovers and music. The product is usable for free with a watermark and upgrades to remove it; it is widely used, including by many startups for launch videos.
